Great introduction to different art styles
This was a great introduction to different art styles for my monster loving kid. The illustrations/art was really well done, and there was not too much text. The one thing I would’ve really liked included was if when each artist was described at the end with a small version of the monster painting, it would’ve been cool to also have a real life picture next to it, I ended up looking them up on my phone to compare.
